Vovo's Daycare is a bilingual child home care program with a current capacity of eight children. This ten year old existing program was re-established in 2014 by the current provider who, as a former assistant, decided to take over this family business.Since then, many children have found a home at Vovo's from the time of their infancy until turning five years old, upon entering Kindergarten. Through active play, this Daycare highlights the basic age appropriate development in literacy, number sense, art, and science. Interpersonal social skills involve listening to and singing songs or playing games in either small group or independently. These activities reinforce following directions appropriately and attending cooperatively. Most importantly, Vovo's daycare proudly prepares children to become socially and emotionally equipped citizens to face and overcome obstacles in their world. As stated by the well-respected Brazilian physician, psychiatrist, psychotherapist and writer Augusto Cury, whose philosophy this daycare shares, &quot;we need more PROFESSIONALS that help people become authors of their OWN LIFE STORY even when the WORLD comes crashing down on their shoulders.&quot; Last but not least, thoughtful and caring attention throughout the day ensure the well-being, happiness and positive development of each and every child in this program.

Curriculum plans have been developed to meet children's individual needs and interests. Alternating periods of quiet and active play are offered. Weather permitting children will go outside each day. We usually walk in the neighbors. Playtime is designed to be non-gender based. There will be group activities each day as well as opportunities for children to play individually. I teach children basic self help skills such as feeding themselves and putting on their own socks and shoes when developmentally ready, it develops their self-confidence when they can do things for themselves. I encourage all children to try everything, but never force them to do something against their will. Examples of activities: listening to stories, learning songs and finger plays, simple science experiments, painting, and simple food preparation. Children will have a &quot;nap or rest time&quot; each day after lunch. Infants will nap on their own schedules.

Hello parents, I am a mother of 2 boys (5 and 8) I was a nanny for more than 10 years before I had kids of my own, and I've been working for Framingham Public Schools as a Portuguese interpreter/ tutor for 2 years. I'm opening my home daycare. I'm passionate about early childhood and my specialty is infants and toddlers. We have a beautiful spacious backyard where we will spend a lot of our time exploring nature learning and playing. We will have age appropriate activities. Young children learn through play and experimenting with their environment and peers, with that I want to provide a home like environment, safe and loving to promote learning and social emotional growth. Teachers special - summer off and no tuition payments. I'm 5 to 8 minutes away from most Framingham schools, as well as Sudbury schools.

At Red Cardinal Bilingual Daycare, we are busy all day having fun and learning! We always begin with circle time. We talk about the daily lesson, sing songs, dance, and just wake up our minds and bodies. From there, we do a variety of different activities throughout the day; arts and crafts, science experiments, reading, outside games-and, of course, we take time for nap and snack break. As a bilingual program, most of the daily activities are in Spanish. I think learning a different language helps children develop their minds and provides so many benefits throughout their lives. Plus, kids feel so proud of themselves when they pick up new words or learn a song in another language. What is NeighborSchools?

My program has a very home-like feeling. I value that when a child is being cared for, they are able to build a distinct bond with that one person, that the parents also trust. I feel almost like I'm a grandmother to the children in my program! In the beginning of life, it's nice to have a comfortable environment before setting off for school. That is what I create a place where the children feel like we are a family. We sing, we dance, we do crafts and play-doh. We also use workbooks to learn the alphabet and other academic topics. I find hands-on activities to be the best so that we develop their sensory skills and their little muscles! I am very centered on the developmental growth of the children and everything we do is bringing new skills and lessons into their little brains. What is NeighborSchools?
